What does this error mean for ImageMagick on XAMPP server?

Question

So I'm trying to install imagemagick on XAMPP server. I installed the php_imagick_ts.dll on the ext folder under the PHP folder. I added the extension line in the php.ini file, but when I start APACHE on XAMPP , it says:

The procedure entry point MagickGetImageMatte could not be located in the dynamic CORE_RL_wan_.dll

Then it says:

PHP Startup : Unable to load dynamically library 'C:\xampp\ext\php_imagick_ts.dll. The specified procedure could not be found

How can I fix this error? I can't see to find a solution. I also installed imagemagick on the computer. Any help or suggestion would be appreciated

Answer 1

The solution below worked for me! Thank you! Just to clarify: I had exactly the same issues with same specs, Xampp 1.8.2, etc.

i had installed ImageMagick-6.8.8-9-Q16-x86-dll.exe

after reading this, I only replaced it with: ImageMagick-6.8.1-9-Q16-x86-dll.exe downloaded from below mentioned ftp.sunet.se... link and it worked, Apache started fine.

Answer 2

I had the same problem. I'm using:

• Xampp 1.8.2
• Apache 2.4.4
• MySQL 5.5.32 (Community Server)
• PHP 5.4.19 (VC9 X86 32bit thread safe) + PEAR

Follow this tutorial http://thinktibits.blogspot.cz/2008/09/installing-imagemagick-on-windows-setup.html . You have to restart your PC after step 8. (this is not mentioned in the tutorial and you'll receive CORE dll error).

I have downloaded ImageMagick for Windows from this site (not the latest, dynamic lib) and dll from here http://www.peewit.fr/imagick/ (5.4, thread safe).

Hope it helps
